Ra’.f'igh. Kxpert'- of tho department
of aprii ulturo at Washington have (»s-
timated thait if ju.-i one diince of edi
ble meat or fat is wasted by each of
the 2'*.000.(>(iit families in the I'nited

Secretary Lucas, of tlie North Caro
lina Fo.d I'onservation rommission
has figured out North Carolina’s i)arl
of such a waste. There are approxi
mately (iooo.ono far’ilies in state. An
ounce of meat or fat, and an ounce of
bread v\.sted en' h day means in
year’s time in this state a loss of 13,-
(iso.oon pound.; of meat, the equivalent
of Jirt.OOO bops, an.l tO.n.lO.OOO b-:ave^
of bread, or 210,00^ bushels of whea‘
"Xhese ti^ures simply show." stated
Mr. Lucas, "what a very small waste
amounts to in the asRregate. As a mat
ter of fact an ounce a day of meat and
bread does not beo:in to approximat-
what we (’estroy of those two prrvduot.s,
to say nothing of the waste in vege
tables. milk, poultry products and
other edibles. North Carolina’s part
of the national waste of $70,000,000 in
hou.'eholds s approximately $20,000.-
000. A very great nart of this Ava.-'te
is unnecessary and preventable. O'
course, there will be some waste un
der the most careful and economical
management but ev°n if we would cut
our waste in half ve would save flO,-
000,000. These figures are based on
normal prices. At the present level
of prices they wou'd be just 100 per
cent higher, making the total uraste
